SP - 649 EP - 657 VL - 28 IS - 7 N2 - This study attempts to examine the impact of incessant violence and political conflicts on the development of health services in Africa. Specifically, how do violent activities and conflicts, such as wars, affect health care infrastructures and health policies in Africa? The paper further examines the consequences of violence and conflicts on the health of refugees. The paper concludes that African states would develop better health policies for their citizens in the absence of violence and conflicts.
